How much is a box of matches?

[Peasie]

This isn't a joke - I really haven't a clue.

As I don't smoke I haven't bought matches for over 25 years and haven't a clue as to how much they cost nowadays. I have bought a lot of candles and tea light candles but have never got round to lighting them other than setting fire to things on my cooker and then lighting the candles - not exactly the safest thing to do.

Depends where you buy them really

Admit to that!!!!
Christ - they were only 2p or 5p when I bought them - I think they were called "Scottish Bluebell".

I'll probably have the look of a criminal when I go to buy them. They'll think I'm an arsonist.

i love the smell of matches - good for getting rid of certain aromas too we use to genie them, then id have to save up another whole 15p to buy another box what a dick i was
